Friday’s incursion included four H-6 bombers, as seen above here © TAIWAN DEFENCE MINISTRY\/AFP\/File \/ Handout<\/b><\/p><\/div>\n

Taipei (AFP), Oct 1 – <\/i>A record 38 Chinese military jets crossed into Taiwan’s defence zone as Beijing marked the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Taipei said on Saturday. <\/p>\n

The show of force on China’s National Day on Friday near the self-ruled democratic island, which Beijing claims as part of its territory, came in the same week it accused Britain of sending a warship into the Taiwan Strait with “evil intentions”.<\/p>\n

Taiwan’s defence ministry said it scrambled its aircraft to broadcast warnings after 22 fighters, two bombers and one anti-submarine aircraft entered the island’s southwest Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ) on Friday.<\/p>\n

A second batch of 13 jets crossed into Taiwan’s ADIZ later on Friday, in a rare night incursion, bringing the total to a record 38, according to the ministry.<\/p>\n

The ADIZ is not the same as Taiwan’s territorial airspace but includes a far greater area that overlaps with part of China’s own air defence identification zone and even includes some of mainland China.<\/p>\n

Beijing often sends military aircraft into Taiwan’s air defence zone in a show of strength and last week flew 24 planes into the area after Taiwan applied to join a major trans-Pacific trade pact.<\/p>\n

China’s authoritarian leaders have vowed to one day seize Taiwan.<\/p>\n

Beijing has ramped up pressure on Taipei since the 2016 election of President Tsai Ing-wen, who views the island as “already independent”. <\/p>\n

Last year, Chinese military jets made a record 380 incursions into Taiwan’s defence zone, and the number of breaches for the first nine months of this year has already exceeded 500.<\/p>\n

The previous single-day record was on June 15 when 28 jets breached Taiwan’s ADIZ.<\/p>\n

Friday’s incursion came after Britain sent a warship through the Taiwan Strait on Monday for the first time since 2008, a move that challenges Beijing’s claim to the sensitive waterway and marked a rare passage by a non-US military vessel. <\/p>\n

The Chinese People’s Liberation Army’s Eastern Theatre Command accused Britain of acting out of “evil intentions to sabotage peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait”.<\/p>\n

US warships regularly conduct “freedom of navigation” exercises in the strait separating Taiwan and mainland China, triggering angry responses from Beijing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
